On of heals of rumors that Microsoft is going to end all Zune players except Zune HD, there is a new rumor that Apple is set to kill off iPod Classic and just carry iPod touch, nano and shuffle !

Maybe is because the iPod touch with flash memory is approaching higher capacities and with greater revenue stream (profits from device and from App store)  that Apple thought it is best to move off of iPod Classic completely !

So folks if you are in market for a high capacity MP3 player from Microsoft or Apple, get them while they are still available hopefully offered at a great discount  like Zune 120 @ Amazon for $189 , iPod Classic currently sells for  $224 (maybe further discounts are underway in future)

You can also see  the iPod Classic vs Zune 120 comparison in one of my earlier posts.
